Our verdict

A pair of wired bookshelf speakers with a super tweeter for wide dispersion, made to work with Sony AV receivers. They are passive and wired, and the listing says nothing about wireless operation.

Overview

A living room shelf or desk is where these compact bookshelf speakers are meant to stand. Each cabinet pairs a woofer, a soft dome tweeter and a super tweeter, with a bass reflex enclosure to carry low notes.

The reason to buy is a three-driver layout with a wide stage, matched to Sony receivers and CS series speakers. The limit is that the listing shows only a low-end frequency figure, and the enclosure material details disagree.

Who it's for

Think of a compact media room with a receiver already in place and shelf space beside the screen. A buyer expecting powered speakers or a wireless connection should choose another kind of speaker.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Three-way driver layout
  • Wide dispersion super tweeter
  • Bass reflex enclosure for low notes
  • Compact enough for shelves
Cons
  • Needs a separate receiver
  • Upper frequency limit not given
  • Enclosure material listing unclear

Performance notes

The woofer handles bass and midrange, the dome tweeter handles treble, and the super tweeter spreads the highest frequencies across a wider listening area. The bass reflex port boosts low output without a larger cabinet. Sound depends heavily on the receiver driving them and on where they stand in the room.
